Flights from Surabaya (SUB) to Nepal

Yes, you will be served meals on your flights from Surabaya to Nepal. On both the Surabaya–Singapore and Singapore–Kathmandu sectors, our in-flight dining includes a hot meal or light meal appropriate to the time of day, with a choice of main courses where possible. You can request special meals in advance to suit many dietary needs, and on selected premium cabins ex-Singapore you may be able to pre-order from an extended Book the Cook menu. A full beverage service is available, including soft drinks, juices, hot drinks, and a selection of alcoholic beverages, along with our signature Singapore Sling on many services.

Flights between Indonesia and Nepal follow our weight-concept baggage policy. In Economy Class, you can usually check in at least 25kg of checked baggage. In Business Class, you can usually check in at least 40kg of checked baggage. Cabin baggage allowances apply in addition to this, with one or two pieces allowed on board depending on cabin class, subject to size and weight limits. Exact allowances are shown on your ticket and during booking.

Wi-Fi is available on most Singapore Airlines flights from Surabaya to Nepal once the aircraft is above 10,000 feet. KrisFlyer members enjoy free, unlimited Wi-Fi; if you are travelling in Economy Class or Premium Economy Class, please ensure your membership number is added to your booking at least 1.5 hours before departure. Non-members and additional devices can use paid plans. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and basic browsing, but it does not support video streaming, video calls, or large file transfers.

On routes from Surabaya to Nepal, you can travel in Business Class or Economy Class. Aircraft and cabin layouts may vary slightly between the Surabaya–Singapore and Singapore–Kathmandu sectors, but both offer these two cabin classes with dedicated seating and service for each.

In Economy Class, you can expect a seat pitch of about 32 inches and up to 19 inches of seat width, depending on the aircraft and specific seat. In Business Class, you can relax in a seat that converts into a fully flat bed on both Airbus A350-900 and Boeing 737-8 MAX aircraft, with direct aisle access or easy aisle reach depending on the configuration.

Yes, Singapore Airlines provides lounge access to eligible passengers at layover airports on connections to Nepal. Eligibility is based on your class of travel or KrisFlyer and Star Alliance status, determined by the flight departing the layover airport. Other options such as purchasing a day pass are also available.

Lounge Access Eligibility
Cabin Class: Complimentary for Suites, First, and Business Class passengers. Premium Economy and Economy travellers do not have access unless they hold eligible status.

Frequent Flyer Status: PPS Club and KrisFlyer Elite Gold (or Star Alliance Gold) members have access regardless of cabin class.

The 'Next Segment' Rule: Eligibility is based on the flight immediately departing that airport.

Most flights from Surabaya to Nepal connect through Singapore Changi Airport. For longer layovers, you can join a complimentary transit tour into the city when available and if your connection time allows. For shorter waits, staying airside gives you access to indoor gardens, resting areas, showers in selected lounges, and a wide choice of dining and shopping. Airport hotels and nap facilities are also available if you prefer privacy and sleep. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Surabaya follows Indonesia Central Time (UTC+7). Nepal, including Kathmandu, uses Nepal Time (UTC+5:45). This means Nepal is 1 hour 15 minutes behind Surabaya throughout the year, as neither location observes daylight saving time.

Yes, your baggage will typically be checked through to your final destination in Nepal when flying via the layover airport on a single booking with Singapore Airlines, provided both flight segments are under the same booking reference (PNR), the connection is under 24 hours, and, for partner-operated onward flights, a through-check agreement is in place.

You may be able to plan a stopover at the layover city on your journey to Nepal, subject to your ticket conditions and availability. When booking, you can search for multi-city options or speak with our customer service team or your travel agent, who can advise whether a stopover can be added to your itinerary.
